Friends, thank you for your kind words. I'm glad you like it.
My daughter and I stayed in Pskov for two days. To see the Kremlin, museums, and eat, of course.
We'll start from one end of the fortress walls of the old city, and go to the other.
Pokrovskaya Tower.
It was the one that suffered the brunt of the attack when the Polish troops of Stefan Batory tried to take Pskov many times in the 16th century. At some point, the tower even had to be blown up so that the Poles could not get through the walls.
Further along the embankment is the Kremlin itself.
Dovmontovo hillfort:
Iconostasis of the Holy Trinity Cathedral:
Continuation of fortifications across the Pskova River:
There, in two towers separate from the Kremlin, is an exhibition dedicated to the Russo-Swedish War of the 17th-18th centuries.
Further along the Pskov River. Varlamovskaya Church, the only one of the many churches in the city with a functioning parish school.
A dam, there used to be a hydroelectric power station here:
And the final point in the line of fortifications on this bank, the Gremyachaya Tower.
It is currently mothballed and is slowly crumbling. I hope they will fix it. Well, we will move on.
